Ballistic Glazing Solutions Guide

February 1, 2024

In this straightforward guide, Total Security Solutions lays it all out: the basic types of glazing, their strengths and weaknesses, and what you can expect when you incorporate bullet-resistant glazing into your project plans. In short, it’s a must-have for anyone working with ballistic glazing.

Bulletproof Glazing Has Never Been More Customizable—or Complex

There are literally thousands of options when it comes to bulletproof glass. Finding the solution that’s right for you or your client is critical and details matter more than ever. The key to success is understanding your options; from spalling to UL rating to frosted coating, this guide covers it all. We also review glazing constraints like weight and size and how to design solutions that are so elegant, you wouldn’t even know they could withstand gunfire. 

Planning Your Ballistic Glazing Project 

Your glazing is just one piece of the puzzle. Once you establish what glazing will meet your project’s requirements, it’s time to walk through the other details. This guide includes helpful information so you can identify:

  • Whether your system is equipped to support ballistic glass
  • If there are any other factors that need to be considered, such as LEED certification
  • What steps to take to ensure success 

With the Ballistic Glazing Solutions guide, planning your project has never been easier. To get started, download today.
